the deepening
of green and blue
expands the view
Work And Play
between wood stackings
we put paddles in the water
time is our friend
Morning Glory
I fly in your sky
and swim in
your ocean of blue
Essential Elements
steel heron
waits by stone bowl
filled with rain
August Sun
reeds and grasses
illumined by heat
green fire on the water
Sitting By The Fountain
listening to the water
share the story of
refreshment
Seen And Seen
that spot of light
the glint in the eye
of the universe
You Can (But You Can’t) Fence Me In
the dandelions corralled
but their wishes
cannot be contained
All Wet
the mallard and heron
embrace water
from above and below
Blue Canoe
ready for adventure
one paddle
already dipped in
Marsh In The Rain
the welcome home
as water
receives water
Wily Escape
released
by the sun
back on the run
Wonderment
sunlight sparkles on water
snowflakes descend to greet it
all kinds and conditions of magic
Thanksgiving
blessings bestowed
in sunshine and snow
great gratitude for all that is given
End Of Season
the swimming hole
so cold now
only water frolics
Eyewitness
taking in the scene
the season’s change
to brown from green
At Summer’s Edge
down by the river
the susans and goldenrod
commune
Savor The Day
some summer fun
cooling off the hooves
while strolling the brook
Thistle By The River
in the wind
whistling
as water passes
Into The Deep
dive into
delphinium’s
blue depths
Last One In
propelled
by Mom’s encouragement
first swim
Homeward Bound
water’s purpose
to be ever
rushing home
Reigning Beauty
this day
heaven sent
we are drenched
in peace and beauty
Ephemeral Pool
ephemeral pool
mysterious light
microbial magic
Welcome
fleeting
glimpse of spring
blackbird visiting
Everything At Once
each element
finds the perfect place
next to all the rest
In That Space
between the leaves
and their reflection
resides consciousness
Above and Below
twice seen
revelation
of self
The Afternoon’s Infinity
time’s reflection
floating by
ever expanding now
Marsh In Morning Light
all possibilities
gather
at the water’s edge
